Official Album Recommendation Trading Center

Anonymous · 2013-05-20T00:03:32-04:00

Idea taken from Jasonconfused. Basically, this thread will be used to offer album recommendations to other users, who will in turn offer you recommendations. Sort of like a recommendation exchange system. For example, I say "I recommend <insert album name here> by <insert corresponding artist name here>" (feel free to include multiple for users to choose from if you want). If that album (or one of them) strikes your fancy, then you send me a PM (I think restricting this part to PM's would make the most sense so the thread doesn't get cluttered) with your own recommendation for me. Then, I listen to your album, you listen to my album, and we PM each other feedback. And voila, we each have one more album under our belt. I think it's a great way to promote our personal lesser-known favorites while simultaneously discovering some unknown gems ourselves. Also, when listing recommendations, try to include a brief description of the album (or at least a genre) so people know if it's what they're looking for. Here are a few of my own recommendations to get things started: Leviathan - Mastodon (prog metal; lots of heavy, melodic guitar riffs and crazy fast drum fills) Emperor Tomato Ketchup - Stereolab (sort of a chill-as-fuck electro-ambient-pop combo) Nightfall in Middle-Earth - Blind Guardian (power metal, but a lot more intricate than a typical album in the genre, in my opinion)

Thanks, but like my previous comment, you should really listen to MANNER. It's literally a perfect album for you. I'll reiterate: I thought of The Microphones the whole time. If you also want to listen to Blue, great! But you'll have a great time with MANNER IMO.

Also, thanks for the prank... 🤣

Uh, reread my post

There's a lot of rereading in this thread... Anyway, got it. I'll try that album tomorro. I was thinking about getting into dubstep anyway.

I personally didn't like MANNER a lot, but I liked The Microphones even less, so I'm sure you'll like it.

When I said "Mount Eerie" I meant "The Glow Pt. 2." I get those albums mixed up.

You ever peep any Kid koala? Check out Some of My Best Friends Are DJs or 12 bit blues

I've heard Some of My Best Friends... (around the time it came out, actually) and didn't enjoy it, so never checked out anything else. Will try 12 Bit Blues.

Dub Come Save Me by Roots Manuva

If you listen to it, feel free to offer me a recommendation of your choice. I'm looking for new stuff anyway.
